Topic: Information



  
 Information - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Physical information is of particular importance in the theory of quantum computers.
Many people speak about the Information Age as the advent of the Knowledge Age or knowledge society, the information society, and information technologies, and even though information science and computer science are often in the spotlight, the word "information" is often used without careful consideration of the various meanings it has acquired.
Other inputs (information) are important only because they are associated with causal inputs and can be used to predict the occurrence of a causal input at a later time (and perhaps another place).

 Information theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Information theory is a field of mathematics concerning the storage and transmission of data and includes the fundamental concepts of source coding and channel coding.
Information theory is the mathematical theory of data communication and storage, generally considered to have been founded in 1948 by Claude E. Shannon.
Information theory is a broad and deep mathematical theory, with equally broad and deep applications, chief among them coding theory.

 ALA Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education
Information literacy, on the other hand, is an intellectual framework for understanding, finding, evaluating, and using information--activities which may be accomplished in part by fluency with information technology, in part by sound investigative methods, but most important, through critical discernment and reasoning.
Among these are information literacy& focus on content, communication, analysis, information searching, and evaluation; whereas information technology "fluency" focuses on a deep understanding of technology and graduated, increasingly skilled use of it.
Information technology skills enable an individual to use computers, software applications, databases, and other technologies to achieve a wide variety of academic, work-related, and personal goals.

 INFORMATION
The larger the uncertainty removed by a message, the stronger the correlation between the input and output of a communication channel, the more detailed particular instructions are the more information is transmitted.
Since information is linked to certain changes, differences or dependencies, it is desirable to refer to theme and distinguish between information stored, information carried, information transmitted, information required, etc. Pure and unqualified information is an unwarranted abstraction.
The answer to a question carries information to the extent it reduces the questioner's uncertainty.
